  1. I know it's been stated time and again, but just another reason why it's 98% certain that the studio version of Bad was recorded with a telecaster:

    I took a few seconds from the album track, and then recorded myself playing the riff with my tele, ONLY with delay, no compressor or anything added, through my blues junior. See what you think! Pretty damn close if you ask me

    Something happened to the studio part after upload, it sounds a bit warbled, but you can still make out what's important, and I know you all know that tone all too well anyway
  2. Its perfect.
  3. Yeah, the studio version sounds a bit muffled or something, but your part is just... perfect, as Matt said.

    Nevertheless I think the Tele tone is maybe a little more "shiny" than it should... Which pickup did you use?
  4. I'd like to order anyone who hasn't read this article with the Edge from 1985 to read it now. Part 1 Part 2

    Thank you kindly! (and you as well Matt) But yeah I agree. There's a bit more bass on the studio version. I'm using the "middle" pickup selection on a tele. The neck pickup was way too bluesy and muffled, and the bridge way too trebly. So I think it's a combination of different pickups, different amp, and perhaps more bass on the recording when they recorded it.

    Thanks for that, Olof. Hadn't read it before.
  7. Edge had a Marshall onstage at some Vertigo shows??



  9. I wonder who the hell would not like that



    Although our non-Latin speakers will have a bit more of trouble to understand all that Portuguese than I had... For me it was like reading in Spanish
  10. Pedal porn
  11. Hmm, I wonder if I should wish for a Verbzilla pedal when I turn 16 in two months.
  12. As my 2nd post in this topic, I'd like to say that I'm going to learn how to play the guitar someday...Maybe when I finish paying my flight lessons...
